On May 9, Ms. Nuqui and Mr. Tudhope attended the University of Guelph Science Olympics with a group of 20 students, where they competed in a variety of biology, chemistry, and physics events.  There were 40 high schools that competed and the students represented MD well. 

At the junior level, MD’s grade 9 team of 4 finished first place in the Molecular Art competition.

At the senior level, the grade 11’s finished third in the Budding Bird Biology Competition, and 1st in the Build a Bug (Bacteria and Virus design) competition.

It was a fun day and the students also had the chance to explore the UoGuelph campus.
